What’s your first memory, good or bad?
Visiting my maternal grandfather in hospital a few hours before he died.
One habit you’re ashamed of and/or really want to change?
I'm not ashamed of it, but I do want to stop smoking every day; have one occasionally when out with the lads rather than five a day. Will be quitting after exam season.
Spotted dick (because it's lush; not just cause it sounds rude)
We didn't have Hallowe'en, in the American sense, over here when I were a kid. So I don't celebrate.

I don't care for Star Trek and probably won't be seeing it.
Favorite song of the moment?
Underworld's Dawn of Eden
